“15 DOUGLAS RAY OVERSTREET Razor”’ coaaay. Here’s a guy who is noted for his neatness in dress, school work, and various other fields. But fer a while, his most out- standing feature was his crazy duck haircut! Although Ray can be a great one for complaints and wise-cracks, he never means a word he says along those lines. And when there’s work to be done, he’s just the guy you need. GLENWOOD ARTHUR PADGETT “ Hans” “T don’t know.” If you see a very, very slow-moving character with a baseball cap cocked at a funny angle on his head, you may be sure it’s “Hans”. Miss Ida’s Gov’t will never be the same without his crazy wisecracks. We bet he’ll teach the Air Force a few tricks, especially in the line of Trig (and we mean this to be funny). DALLAS OLIVER PINION “Pinion” “Hey, let’s get the cabin!” Here’s one guy that will be tremendously missed at B. H. S. for a long, long time. ‘Calling Dr. Pinion, calling Dr. Pinion, emergency room.”’ Yep, that’s it, Dr. Pinion, and the above will be a familiar cry in the near future for you. Dallas decided that he was tired of being on the receiving end of the needle all the time and now he’s attempting to alter the situation. Best of luck to you in achieving your goal! JACK EUGENE RYDER “Gene” Don’t tell Anne!” For a guy who was a quiet petunia during our first three or four years, this one really blossomed out when he gained the dignity of being a senior. Gene took part in various activities, and added confusion and merriment to everything. He rocked the class with his teasing and his guitar playing, and we hope he’ll keep on rocking for years to come. PHYLLIS JUNE SAFEWRIGHT Phyllis” “Ummmmmm.” Phyllis has never been known to say anything bad about anyone—in fact, she’s never been known to say anything! There’s no telling what wisdom and wit is hidden behind her silent facade; isn’t it a pity that we'll never know? CARL HOLLAND WELLS ” “ Tarzan “T will if I can.” B. H. S. gained quite a bit of glory through the power of Carl’s shot putt, and that mean ball he could center. Besides being an athletic dream guy, Carl gained the reputation of being the original “helping hand”; quite a few things would never have been accomplished in various organizations if it hadn’t been for Tarzan. JO Y MAE WILKERSON Joy Mae” “Oh, my!” There goes a sailor, there goes Joy Mae. Could it be that Joy Mae likes sailors? Well, only a certain one. This lassie was very appropriately named, for she always seems to be happy. Lucky for the class of 755, her grin was contagious! ROGER DALE WILSON “Zeke” “Homework—it ain’t fair.” Ever since we can remember, Dale has been champ at all sports—bet he’s a real blessing to the Marines! Lately, how- ever, Dale has been more preoccupied with a blond bundle called Helen than with sports. But whatever tangent his future takes, we shall always remember him for that blood- curdling laugh and those practical jokes. je
